Carinthia, which has been a trademark of Gold Eck Textile Corporation for 60 years, is dedicated to the technology of thermally insulated materials made from both natural and synthetic fibers and their use in the most demanding conditions. For more than 25 years, the company has been focusing on the development of polyester-based thermal insulation materials with the aim of achieving maximum efficiency while maintaining an optimum warm-to-weight ratio.

Army sleeping bags filled with G-loft® insulation material are the result of intensive research and development activities. After carrying out an extensive set of tests, most European armies chose G-Loft®. The armies and their special units use these high-quality G-Loft® sleeping bags and clothing for everyday combat deployment. Even in the most demanding climatic conditions, G-loft® offers top performance and comfort. This exceptional quality has been achieved through several years of systematic research that has taken the natural characteristics of goose down.

G-loft® insulation material with a memory effect offers an unbeatable ratio of three decisive criteria: high heat output, low packed volume (compressible load) and low weight. Likewise, durability and natural comfort are additional key criteria for the professional user of sleeping bags and clothing in extreme conditions.

For the civilian market, the company specializes in equipping climbing expeditions residing in the alpine terrain or in the Arctic regions. The use of state-of-the-art materials such as Gore-Tex, Windstopper and G-Loft ensures the high performance of all products. Thanks to the experience of our own development department, it is also possible to respond flexibly to special customer requirements and produce products according to their individual needs.
